What a great show in TaftWOW!!! Saturday night turned out better than we could have dreamed. Taft treated us so good. The Oasis really
surprised me. That was my first time in there and I like that place. I didn't think the acoustics would be any good cause
its a brick building, but with a wooden roof the sound sounded great. The dance floor was full threw our whole set. What a
rush. The almost full house gave us so much energy, thats just what I so look forward too playing live. It puts me on such
a high! Thank you Taft and all the staff at the Oasis, we will be returning. Three Chord Whore started off the night, and
they did a great job. We will be doing more gigs with them, they are so much fun to hang with. Thanks Whores for hanging with
us and sharing the stage. AMERICAN SMOGG has just a few touch ups to go on our CD and it should be finished this week. We
plan on releasing it on the 30th of Nov. and having a big party at Vinny's on that same day. We plan on going back into
the studio next year in late Jan or Feb. We are looking for a keyboard player to add to our sound. So if your a female over
21 and play a keyboard hit us up, we are looking for you. Richard/AMERICAN SMOGG

BEBO here!!Whats up peeps? just trying my hand hand at this blog thing. Turns out that our new ep doesn't look like it will be available
for this sat. show in taft. alittle more mixing to do. The whole process of recording in the studio was a really cool experience. I
myself wasn't sure what to expect out of it all, as this was the first time in a studio for all but big richard.
It was a blast to do. Sharon and Gary of b2 studios are really cool ppl to work with, i would recommend them to anybody looking
to record some music. thank both of you for that. It does however look like the ep will be available at our nov. 30th
show at vinny's. i would like to thank everyone that is a supporter of american smogg, the ppl would be hard to list
everyone and not forget anyone so i will not attempt it. But you guys know who you are!!!!!!! i give special thanks to all.
especially to all the band members, whom we all get along pretty damn good. hope to see everyone out at the taft show this
weekend, remember we are bringing some whores with us :) Three chord Whores that is.

CD's available for our next show on the 17th. hopefully, if not for sure on the 30th's show. Richard/AMERICAN

First night in the studioWhat a great start to a recording session. Last night AMERICAN SMOGG was in the B-2 studio to record 6 of our
songs. What a great experience we had. B-2 studio is ran by Sharon and Gary and they sure know there shit! The studio doesn't
look like much, just a room in a basement in a old building, but the sound you get out of there is mind blowing. This
is my second experience with B-2 and it was even more enjoyable than the first, cause I knew what to expect. The other
guys, Thomas, Bebo, and Jim all said they loved the experience. We have the drums and bass finished and tonight we put the
guitars and hopefully vocals down. Richard/AMERICAN SMOGG you can check out more info on B-2 @ b2studio.00go.com or http://www.myspace.com/b2studio
